Solid Documents launches PDF/A-1b validation service for free!

Redmond, Washington, December 1, 2008. Solid Documents, a leading provider of document utility products, today announced the release of a free online service for validating PDF files for PDF/A-1b compliance.

Solid Documents is a member of the PDF/A Competence Center, a cooperation between numerous world-leading companies and experts in PDF technology. PDF/A-1b is an ISO Standard for using the PDF format for the long-term archiving of electronic documents. Not all PDF files meet this ISO 19005-1: PDF/A-1b standard. Our new free online service will analyze your PDF files for compliance and send you a report. No software to install, no hassle, and instant results.

Our free online service, Free PDF Validator, uses the industry leading PDF/A validator from Solid PDF Tools. Solid PDF Tools can do much more than PDF/A validation. Other key features of Solid PDF Tools include:

Batch-Process Conversions. Save time by using batch conversion palettes in the UI or using scripts from the command line.
